"I got they're demo a while ago. Before there was talk of them getting on relelatoin records. The Cd is good but doen't ever compare to seeing them live. Sweet pete and everyone in the band has so much love of hardcore and detication to what they speak about. If you ever see them in your area you better go watch them or else. XfordX"
